Adaptyv is building an automated lab that lets AI agents run biology experiments.

We’re entering the era of agentic science where AI models can now design novel proteins, propose hypotheses, and iterate on experimental results. But they can’t run the experiments themselves – that’s still a manual, months‑long process. We’re building the infrastructure that gives AI agents access to the physical world.

We are one of Europe’s fastest‑growing biotech startups, trusted by leading biopharmas, frontier AI labs, and the tech‑bio companies pushing the field forward. This is a rare chance to help advance some of the most important work happening in biotech today.

Our automated lab is powered by a deep software + hardware stack: lab instruments worth millions of USD reverse‑engineered into API‑controllable hardware, dozens of devices orchestrated through complex workflows, full observability on everything that happens in the lab, processing pipelines for mes...
